Texas – Soft morning light filters through patchy clouds as traffic hums across North Texas. The air feels cool, not cold, but change is already lining up. Winter remains quiet for now, though sharper mornings return soon.
According to the National Weather Service, skies turn mostly sunny today with highs climbing into the upper 60s. Light southwest winds keep the air comfortable through afternoon, making it feel more like early spring than mid-January.
Across North Texas, this mild stretch does not last. Cooler air settles in by Wednesday night, setting up colder mornings by Thursday. Daytime highs dip back toward the upper 50s, while overnight lows fall into the low 40s and mid-30s in outlying areas.
In the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex, tonight stays mostly clear with lows near the mid-40s. Wednesday brings another sunny day near the low 60s, but winds increase late. By Thursday morning, calmer winds and clear skies allow temperatures to fall quickly, especially in open and low-lying areas.
While no rain or snow is expected, drivers should still stay alert early mornings. Bridges and elevated roadways along I-35E, I-30, and Loop 12 can cool faster than surrounding pavement. A brief frost cannot be ruled out north and west of the urban core.
By Friday and Saturday, sunshine dominates again. Highs rebound into the low 60s, though nights remain cool. January 2026 continues its pattern of wide temperature swings, something North Texans know well.
No advisories are posted at this time, but colder mornings remain on the radar. Stepping out early later this week? Tell us how brisk it feels where you are.
